DELL PowerEdge R940 3U Rack Server 4x Xeon Gold 6134 3.2GHz 512GB DDR4 H730P

Four-socket Xeon Gold 6134 platform

This Dell PowerEdge R940 is a 3U rack server equipped with four Intel Xeon Gold 6134 processors, each running at 3.2 GHz with eight cores. It ships with 512 GB of DDR4 registered ECC memory across 16 modules and a PERC H730P storage controller with 2 GB cache. Redundant 1600 W platinum power supplies, iDRAC 9 Enterprise remote management, quad-port 1 GbE and 10 GbE networking, plus rails and bezel are included. The system supports up to eight 2.5-inch SATA or SAS drives in hot-swap trays.

Suited for dense virtualisation

Organisations running memory-intensive virtualisation, in-memory databases or high-transaction ERP workloads will benefit from the 48 DIMM slots and 6 TB maximum memory capacity. The four-socket design delivers 32 total cores and 64 threads within a compact 3U footprint. Buyers who need more than eight internal drive bays or who require internal GPU acceleration should consider alternative platforms. The server arrives without installed drives, so storage must be sourced separately.

32 cores and 512 GB DDR4 in 3U

The decisive specification is the combination of four eight-core Xeon Gold 6134 CPUs and 512 GB of DDR4 2666 MHz memory installed across 16 slots. This provides a high core count and large memory capacity in a 3U rack height while leaving 32 DIMM slots free for future expansion up to the 6 TB limit. The PERC H730P controller supports RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50 and 60 for flexible storage redundancy.
